I know this could be an endless discussion, but my associates and I are trying to determine the best pricing structure or our mobile solutions with local businesses. Currently, we have a few clients and are charging the following. We value the opinions of our fellow mobile marketers and would appreciate thoughts or discussion on what others are charging and/or are we charging too much or not enough for what we are doing today.

As a reference, we are charging $299 setup and delivery of a mobile website along with a taste of SMS marketing by giving them up to 200 mobile subscribers, 1 keyword and 1 blast per month. We throw in QR Codes and one mobile coupon or landing page for their advertising. This is just to get them started and exposed to using mobile marketing in their business. We then charge them $89/month starting with month two.

Based on $299 setup and $89/month, what does everyone think on the matter?

Thank you

What do you give them for $9/mo?

What product do you use for the sending of the messages? Do you do that for them, or do they do it themselves?

I use SignalHQ as the messaging platform. They are a flat cost per month with no per text message charges. I am at the 1,000 - 2,500 priced tier which is only $49.00 per month. As client demands and subscriber volumes increase, I can upgrade the tiered package at any time.

They have turned out to be the best option for me at this time.

I think the price you have is in the right range.

I think your fees sounds reasonable considering what they get for their money and possibility few to upsell other services later.

Your monthly charge sounds about right for your service offering however depending on the quality of mobile sites you are setting up for the client you are selling yourself WAY short.

A minimum of at least $500 for a mobile site set up would be sufficient if not much more. Now obviously I don't know where your market is but there is no reason you can't be charging $500-$2000 for your mobile site set up alone.

Think about it from this angle. If that mobile site is built for a Law office and that mobile site brings in 1 client, then the mobile site pays for itself MANY times over for that law office.

JMO, I see that many Warriors are selling themselves short in the mobile space when the fact of the matter is we (mobile marketers)are empowering business in a local way they have never seen before. I would personally always start high and work my way down during negotiations with the client.

Good luck with your business!

Thank you for the insight Kevin. We have been scouring the Interweb to compare prices with other businesses. I do like your angle on Law Offices. You are certainly right on the value proposition to the business if they landed even one client. We will certainly take it under consideration on our ongoing pricing.

Thanks again

What do you mean by you give them 200 subscribers?

Also,, what exactly does the $89 a month get them?
